ECONOMIC UTILISATION
HUMAN CAPITAL - IT DEPENDS ON YOUR ABILITIES
SKILLS! SKILLS! – FUCK YOUR INDIVIDUALITY
GOT RID BY THEIR LIES – BETRAYED BY AUTHORITIES
FORGET YOUR IDEALS – GET OUT OF THE WAY
OUTPUT DEFICITS
SPANNER IN THE WORKS
MILLS GRIND SLOWLY
WRETSHED FAILURE, FIRED, NEXT!
FACTORY RATS IN PRODUCTION FLOW
CRACKED HEADS BY PIECEWORKERS ELBOW
BLOODY IRON SWEAT FOR MASS CONSUMPTION
DR. DEATH WORKS OVERTIME
BESIDE AT THE ASSEMBLY LINE
Economization, guidance of growth and planned obsolescence explain the exploitation of labour force and disposal of natural resources.

Empty Eyes
Between growing walls they struggle
Soulless wanderers in a concrete jungle
Light grey skin and bizarre dreams
But their fucked-up paradise ain’t what it seems
Refrain:
Who’s pulling the strings
Of empty eyed marionettes?
What makes them turn
Their future into an allday hell?
Everyday I see the hell they’re going through
But I’m not one of them, won’t enqueue
I’m breaking out, I’m stealing good times
Even though through empty eyes it’s committing crimes
Refrain:
Who’s pulling the strings
Of empty eyed marionettes?
What makes them turn
Their future into a allday hell?

AGLOSSIA
I WAS WARNED WHEN I FIRST MET YOU
BUT I COULDN´T CARE LESS
NOW ALMOST DRAWNED IN YOUR DIRT I´VE TO REGRET TO
SAY THAT I ALMOST GOT LOST INSIDE THIS EMOTIONAL MESS
RIPED OUT MY TONGUE
HANGING ON ROOTED ON THE GROUND
NO SENSE - NO SOUND - NO COMPLAINS
JUST AGLOSSIA REMAINS
LIVING IN SEDATIVE EXISTENCE LIKE KICKING AN ADDICTIVE DRUG
I´LL TAKE THIS DEVASTATING DISORDER AS AN INTERVENTION
COPE WITH ALL FEARS
SELFMUTILITATION SLIGHTLY DISAPPEARS
REFRAIN
YOU TOLD ME THERE´S NO HOPE FOR THE WEAK
AND YOU´RE RIGHT – IT´S ME THAT CANNOT SLEEP
YES, I AM A NAIL BITER AND A CUTICLE PICKER
ON THESE GROUNDS EVERYTHING WITH YOU GETS ONLY SICKER

CODE LOCK DOWN
THEY SEE EVERYTHING
YOUR LIFE IS KEPT UNDER SURVEILLIANCE
HUMANS GET MORE AND MORE CONSTRICTED
LOCKED DOWN SOCIETY
IT GOES AGAINST THE GRAIN FOR ME
FUCK CODE LOCK DOWN FUCK CODE LOCK DOWN
CLAIM FOR RESTRAINING ORDER
HELP TO HEAD OFF THIS MACHINERY
INSIST ON YOUR SENSE OF CONTROL
MADE THEMSELVES GUILTY
TO HAVE CROSSED THE BORDER
RESIST THEIR COMPULSION TO CONTROL
FUCK CODE LOCK DOWN FUCK CODE LOCK DOWN
WE SEE INTO A GLOOMY FUTURE
WE NEED ALL OUR PERSISTANCE
PERHAPS ONLY THE DEAD SEE THE END OF THIS WAR
BUT IN YOUR MIND YOU CAN’ T NEVER GO TOO FAR

NO ONE
A THOUSAND THOUHGTS ARE IN MY HEAD
BETWEEN LOVE AND HATE
ANGER AND FEAR
MY STOMACH IS CRAMPED – I'M TREMBLING
NO PLACE TO GO – THERE'S NOTHING TO DO
I CAN'T RUN AWAY FROM THE FEELINGS
I CARRY INSIDE
I WANT TO GET HIT – I WANT TO FEEL PAIN
TO CONCEAL THE MISERY
THAT CREEPS THROUGH MY VEINS
I WANT TO BE DEAF – I WANT TO BE BLIND
TO AVOID THE WORLD
FINDING A WAY TO MY MIND
I WANT TO BE DRUGGED UP TO MY EYEBALLS
TO HIDE MY FEELINGS BEHIND BIGGEST WALLS
I WANT TO BE DEAD – BUT I DON'T WANT TO DIE
I WANT TO KILL MYSELF
AT LEAST ON THE INSIDE
NOONE'S GONNA SAVE ME FROM SELFDESTRUCTION

FAT CAT SCUM
! IT’ S RAINING KAVIAR !
THE INVASION OF FAT CATS STARTS AND SPREADS
URBAN PLANNER SERVE THEIR NEEDS
SEGREGATED RESIDENTS BY POFIT SEEKERS
CONCEITED GREEDY PIGS IN BUFFALO SNEAKERS
IN DOUBT YOU BETTER RUN
WE’ D NEVER HAD IT DONE
CLASS AGAINST CLASS
EXCUSE YOUR CAR WAS FUN
IN DOUBT YOU BETTER RUN
WE’ D NEVER HAD IT DONE
CLASS AGAINST CLASS
DESTROY THE FAT CAT SCUM
RESTORING THE BUILDINGS, INCREASING RENTAL PRICES
NEW LANDLORDS FAKE SMILE, IT ORDINARILY RISES
BE “HIP”, BE “CREATIVE”, BE “EXPLOITABLE”
OR STOP THE DISPLACEMENT OF BARRIO PEOPLE
? RESHUFFLING SOCIAL STRUCTURES FOR YOUR LATTE MACCHIATO?

LA CEJA
SOCIETY IGNORES THIS SEGMENT OF REALITY
APART FROM SANCTIMONIOUS MEMORIES
UNDER TAWDRY CHRISTMAS TREES
CHILDREN OF LA CEJA – THEY`RE NOT THE MALEFACTORS
CHILDREN OF LA CEJA – THEY´RE PASSIVE REACTORS
THAT POLICE SETS FIRE TO MINORS
INHALING PAINT STRIPPER TO FORGET
OR TAKE THEM TO THE OUTSKIRTS - THEY WON´T EVER COME BACK
CHILDREN OF LA CEJA – THEY`RE NOT THE MALEFACTORS
CHILDREN OF LA CEJA – THEY´RE PASSIVE REACTORS
THERE´S NOTHING TO COMPROMISE IN STREET URCHIN´S LIFE
FOR THEM IT´S JUST ANOTHER DAY IN PARADISE
THERE´S NO NEED FOR US TO TAKE THE CONSEQUENCE
FOR US IT´S ALL SHOW – NO SUBSTANCE!

FALLOUT
DON’ T ACT AS IF YOU DIDN’ T KNOW
‘ BOUT THE DEATH YOU’ RE DEALING WITH
DON’ T ACT AS IF YOU WERENT WARNED
‘ BOUT THE CONSEQUENCE
YOU IGNORED IT
RADIOACTIVE DUST BURRIED OUR DREAMS
POISON RAIN IS POURING DOWN ON ME
SEE ROTTING CITIES AND EMPTY FIELDS
TOTAL SILENCE OVER CITIES, RIVERS, SEAS
THE END OF BABYLON – FALLOUT
THERE IS NO HORIZON – FALLOUT
THE GREED LEADS TO AN END – FALLOUT
RADIATION – IT’ S THE END

FROZEN WATCHFULLNESS
SITTING IN BED
FOCUSSING ALL SOUND
HE´S THERE - HE´S AROUND
NO OBTAINING OF GUIDANCE
NO SENSE OF RELIABLE ALLIANCE
DEBUNKED REASSURANCE OF WORTH
FROZEN WATCHFULLNESS
NO PHYSICAL INTEGRITY OR PSYCHOLOGICAL EXISTANCE
JUST SPOILED SOCIAL INDENTITY
WHO FIGHTS FOR THEIR SECURITY?
|
||||
12. |

SUMMATION OF A CULTURE / NOTHING’ S LEFT
THE BIRDS HAVE STOPPED TO FLY
THERE IS NOTHING LEFT
NOT A SINGLE SILENT CRY
PARENTS STOP FIGHTING
ABOUT MONEY OR HOW TO SURVIVE
´COS THERE IS NOTHING LEFT TO BUY
CHILDREN STOPPED FIGHTING
ABOUT THE RULES OF GAMES
´COS THERE IS NOTHING LEFT TO PLAY WITH
JUST A ROTTED WORLD AND PAIN
IT WILL BE THE DAY
THE BIRDS STOP SINGING
AND FALL OUT OF THE SKY
WE´LL NEVER UNDERSTAND
JUST SOME OLD MEN WILL ASK WHY
´COS THEY´ VE NEVER IMAGINED
SUCH A GREEDY STUPID CULTURE
THAT ROBS ITSELF
ITS OWN FUCKING FUTURE

THE END OF PATIENCE
THIS IS THE VICTORY OF HATE AND GREED
THE WORLD HAS BEEN SOLD TO COMPANIES
IT´S ALL ABOUT POWER - IT´S ALL ABOUT PROFIT
THIS IS THE END OF OUR HOPES AND DREAMS
´COS THEY RULE THIS WORLD WITH BIG BANKS
WE OWE THEM EVERYTHING PLUS FIVER PERCENT
JUST A FEW HEADS BEHIND THIS SYSTEM
IT JUST WORKS OUT FOR THEM
THEY KEEP US DOWN
KEEP US IN A STRANGLEHOLD
THEY BREAK AND BEND THEIR LAWS
OPRESSION
LIKE THERE ALWAYS WAS
SO WE CONSTANTLY LIVE IN A STATE OF FEAR
TORTURED ANF FED WITH LIES
SOAP OPERA SHOWS HAVE BECOME REALITY
THIS SOCIETY HAS SHUT ITS EYES
SICK OF BEIN USED
SICK OF YOUR EXPLOITATION
SICK OF BORDERS AND WALLS
SICK OF YOUR NATION
PROTEST AGAINST IGNORANCE
LIFE MEANS RESISTANCE
TALKING IS OVER
FIGHT FOR EXISTANCE
BORN INTO THIS WORLD TO SCROPE A LIVING
IN DEAD-END JOBS WE HAVE TO FIT IN
WHAT ABOUT A FUTURE OR A FUCKIN´ PERSPECTIVE
FORCED TO EAT SHIT- WORTHLESS EXISTANCE
WE HAVE THE CHOICE TO TAKE PART IN ELECTIONS
THAT WON´T CHANGE ANYTHING
BUT THE HEADS IN POSITIONS
NO CONFESSIONS BY PEOLE WITH NO CONCIENCE
NO JUSTICE
NO PEACE
NO MORE PATIENCE
